Juan Carlos | Squeegee Prints | Shirt Show 271

It’s been a long time since episode 2 of Shirt Show, and from the outside looking in, Juan seems to have cracked the code on work life balance. Between crushing it with Squeegee Prints, and giving his time to the things he loves outside of the shop, Juan is the perfect role model to any shop owner who is feeling overwhelmed. But through our conversation we learn of the hard changes he had to make in order to reach this point, and it didn’t happen overnight. This was a much needed therapy session, so let’s talk feelings. Topics of discussion include: intentional growth, running a self audit and knowing your numbers, slow season, self discipline, improved printing methods, managing sales, different viewpoints on digital printing, the value of quality, and chickens.
